i.e. 10-bolt or D44 fronts.

Instead of the partial clips that come with 'em, or tack-welding the dang things on, you can use an appropriately sized snap ring to really hold the U-joint inside the front shafts.

But you prolly know this if you read the subject line. Anyway, they come 25 to a pack from McMaster, so I have spares :haha: For reference, these are McMaster #97633A330 (1 3/16") but you can also use 98541A134 (30mm).

If you want a set (8, presumably), PM me with your snail addy and I'll drop 'em in an envelope. The PayPal fees would eat up more than they're worth, so no charge, just pay it forward and help out the next guy.

Do want a set. I bought the wrong size :doah:

I'd settle on like a three bedroom house with a 12 car garage :haha:

Out they go. One set left for the asking; after that, you have to actually get them from McMaster and pay shipping :doah: :D

Mostly curious on this. I can't find the thread, do you have to grind out space for them on the shafts, or will they just snap on? This sounds 10x better than dealing with the half circle ones.

Stock shafts you will need to. Most aftermarket shafts have the clearance.
 
Thanks they showed up a couple days ago I had to give the mail man 22Cents:dunno:

Dangit, sorry about that. I think my postal scale is on the fritz -- it claimed they were less than the 1oz rate but it sure felt heavier.

Anyway, other than the hassle I think they're still worth 22c =))

Just installed mine this weekend. They fit way better that the 1-1/8" I tried last time.

Think I'll order up some more and make some spare shafts.

Thanks doooood.
